I'm amending my 2018 Federal and California returns. Federal went fine. But I had a problem with California's Schedule X.
On the amended CA540, Line 2 of Schedule X, states "Overpaid tax , if any as shown on original tax return or as previously adjusted by FTB.." I did not have an overpayment in the original tax return. But the amount that is populating line 2 is the amount of refund from the amended tax return. I had to pay in the original return and that payment showed correctly on line 5. My refund should have been the amount I paid for the 2018 tax return plus the overpayment shown on the amended tax returns, but it is showing just the amount I paid in the original returns. I tried changing the amount to zero on the Schedule but it did not work. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.
